SYRIAN ROASTED BELL PEPPER SALAD

6-8 bell peppers, red, yellow, orange

5 garlic cloves, sliced thinly

1/4 cup cider vinegar

1/4 cup olive oil

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

1. Preheat broiler and place oven rack in the uppermost position . Line a large baking pan with foil. Place peppers cut side down on the foil and broil until skin is black, 8 to 12 minutes.

2. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the garlic, vinegar, olive oil, salt and cumin.

3. When the peppers are black, turn and broil cut side an additional 5 minutes until edges blacken.

4. Remove peppers from oven. Using the foil lining the pan, wrap tightly and set aside for 10 minutes. This will steam the peppers and allow the skin to slip off easily.

5. Remove peppers from foil, pour any accumulated liquid into the bowl with the dressing. Peel the skin from the peppers. Any skin that does not slip off may remain on. Slice each pepper into thin strips of about 3” long and add to the dressing.
